Chapter 376: The Mighty Southbound

Why did Nurhachi almost change his surname to Tong, because he was the son-in-law of Tong Jia's family, that is, Nurhachi married Tong Chunxiu when he was eighteen years old, and he joined the Tong family, not to marry a daughter-in-law, but to marry a son-in-law.

The real old man has little ambition, and he has a very funny name, called Tong Furen.

The Jurchen is called Tamu Bayan, which can also be translated as Tong rich man.

The eldest son, Chu Ying, died early, and was killed by the ministers, who was brave and good at fighting, sharp and talented.

However, the later Great Belle was very good at hiding his clumsiness.

Whether it was the era of the Old Khan, or the era of Huang Taiji, and then to the era of Fulin and Dolgon, the two red flags in the hands of the Dai Shan family were one of the decisive forces that could influence the direction of the dynasty.

Therefore, whether it is Huang Taiji's struggle for the throne, or Dolgon's competition with Haoge, the two red flags and Prince Li have played a great role, and sometimes even if he remains neutral, it is also the biggest role.

Therefore, the commander of the Southern Expedition in front of him did not dare to underestimate this young general who still needed to call himself grandpa.

And the middle-aged man who led the two county kings was the famous Jierharang, and the commander of the southern expeditionary army, he was not only handsome, but also very not simple, and his not simple was not only his ability and strength, but also his status in the court.

Speaking of Zilharang, it can be said that he is the second most powerful person in the Qing Dynasty at this time, of course, this real power is talking about political power rather than military power.

He is one of the four little beylers of the Mandate of Heaven Khan, one of the four princes of Tiancong Khan, one of the two auxiliary uncles of the Shunzhi Dynasty, and another auxiliary king, so naturally he is the regent of the imperial father, Dorgon.

His identity is: Xinyi Auxiliary Uncle King, Manchuria Blue Flag Bannerman, and Prince Heshuo Zheng.

It is not said that he is the son of the old Khan, because he is not the son of the old Khan, he is the half-brother of the old Khan, and he opened the foundation of the old Khan together, but later rebelled against the son of Shulhaqi, the prince of Heshuozhuang, and the second Bel Amin is a brother.

Together with Amin, he and King Han's six sons became the Eight Banners, and they were the four little Baylors back then.

After Amin was seized of power and his house, he was still deeply trusted by Huang Taiji, and Huang Taiji even gave him all the property coefficients from Amin.

Now that Zilharang is nominally in charge of the military administration of the Qing Dynasty with Dorgon, how can he not be outstanding?

"Uncle led his nephew and Luckedhun to the south this time, and it is certain that we will follow my uncle to establish meritorious deeds.

In fact, the small court of the Southern Ming Dynasty has been stumbling for a long time, it turns out that the Jiangbei provinces have not yet been pacified, and we have not experienced dealing with Zhu Youlang's clown, and now the Jiangbei provinces have been initially stabilized.

At this time, the uncle led us and waited for 300,000 troops to go south, and Zhu Youlang's puppet Ming small court was only waiting to be destroyed. ”

Luck Dehun also pulled the corners of his mouth and echoed, "Yes, what Uncle Huang said is right, Zhu Youlang had better wash his neck and die obediently, so that we can reward him with a good time, and avoid the prince and the emperor from being tired." ”

After hearing this, Zilharang nodded lightly, but said to Luckedhun with a warning meaning, "Soldiers, the major affairs of the country, you must not be careless," and then looked at Nikan on the left, "Nikan, you are the deputy commander of the southern expedition army, and the lion fights the rabbit with all his strength, and you can't ignore such a low-level mistake of the enemy." ”

The army marched southward, and the uncle, nephew, and grandson, marched side by side, talking from time to time, and Zilharang continued:

"Zhu Youlang still has some ability, although he mistakenly believed Liu Chengyin before, and lost the lives of his wife and children in the first battle of Huguang, and he was almost captured alive by Kong Youde.

But after escaping back to Guangxi, he immediately regained his strength, rectified the government, eradicated traitors, and did a good job.

In the two battles of Ji'an and Ganzhou, Jiangxi, Bagushan lost troops and generals, and even fierce generals like He Luohui were sacrificed in his hands.

also fought back, and took away half of the lake that Kong Youde had previously recovered. ”

Nikan responded to Zilharang's mouth, saying that his nephew was taught, but he was quite unconvinced and added, "The nephew should keep in mind the teachings of the uncle, but the uncle should not only grow the ambition of others to destroy his own prestige and glorify the mountains and rivers of the Qing Dynasty. ”

Instead of being upset by Nikan's disobedience, Zilharang raised his eyebrows with interest, "Oh, then tell me, why do you believe that our expedition will be different from that of Bagu Mountain?" ”

Nikan's self-confidence was evidently not blind, so he spoke eloquently, sat on the tall horse with his head held high, and said with great anticipation:

"In this expedition, the uncle led his own banner men and nephews, as well as the Luck Dehun Department and the Liaodong Han Army, a total of 70,000 elite soldiers, and only our descendants are enough to equal the strength of the main force of Bagu Mountain when it first went south.

Therefore, the nephew wants to say that He Luohui's sacrifice is because he knows that his troops are insufficient, but he still lightly attacks the enemy, not so much that the puppet Ming emperor is not easy to deal with, but that He Luohui asked for himself. ”

Zilharang nodded thoughtfully, and when he saw that Nikan no longer spoke, he turned to ask the king of Shun Chengjun, "What do you think?" ”

Luckedhun sorted out his thoughts, and said in Nikan's tone, "Grandson's opinion is similar to that of Uncle Wang.

This time, the prince led Uncle Wang and his grandson to the south, not only with the 70,000 elites of the three of us, but also the regent also dispatched 80,000 troops from the Guanning army of Wu Sangui, the king of Pingxi, who had just won the battle in Sichuan and Shaanxi, to be stationed in Wuchang waiting to join the main force of our army, and Wu Sangui's force was undoubtedly the strongest among all the Han army. ”

Zilharang also smiled, and in his heart, there was also a ravine, so he looked at the road ahead, opened his mouth and smiled comfortably, and his voice was loud, "Hehehe, yes, we have nearly 300,000 soldiers and horses going south this time, I'm afraid it will really break the bones of the little puppet Ming court."

Among the gifts brought to Zhu Youlang this time, not only are all the elite soldiers under the command of this king with blue flags, and the elites under the command of the two of you, but Wu Sangui's Guan Ning army is by no means comparable to Liu Liangzuo's tofu army.

Of course, we can't forget that at this time, the 85,000 elite army of Liugu Mountain that has retreated to Jiujiang City, although they failed in the first battle in Jiangxi and killed He Luohui and Liu Liangzuo, the two solid mountains, but the rest of the people and horses are all the elite of the Eight Banners. ”

"Uncle is right," said Nikan, righting the blood-red helmet that had risen high above his head, the noble symbol of his title of county king, with his horsewhip, and then confidently displayed a grim smile, and said:

"We also have a total of 21,000 elite Han troops in Hanyang and Wuchang City, including Kong Youde, King of Gongshun, Shang Kexi, King of Zhishun, and Geng Zhongming, King of Huaishun, all of whom are fighting from the northeast to the northwest, and from the northwest to the southwest.

There is also the Jiangnan governor of Nanchang, Ma Guozhu, and the 30,000 Han army is coordinated.
